Grant In addition to featuring some of the most eclectically polished art song-writing of this past year, which carries on the sonic traditions of late '90s Scandinavian avant-garde (The Gathering or The 3rd And The Mortal), the extended acoustic rendition of the title track permits virtuoso bassist-composer Ben Willis to lovingly indulge in Steve Reich-esque minimalism.
